Description
A thought-provoking guide to facing global crises with maturity and integrity, this book challenges readers to grow up and take responsibility for their actions. Vanessa Machado de Oliveira presents a nuanced exploration of the modern world's out-of-balance behavior patterns, driven by colonialism, neoliberalism, and consumption. By examining the habits and systems that hold us back, she invites readers to consider a different path forward, one that prioritizes accountability and the well-being of the planet.
